Religion:
To me, there is one god, and nothing more. People have been on this earth for millions of years, since the first record of language, people have depicted images of a god. People with power began to add all the restrictions and guidelines to religions. I do not believe anymore that Jesus christ is God" Because he was a man just like you and I, I do not believe in eternal damnation or heaven. You live your life the way you want, and whatever happens in your live is the result of a decision that you made. Every decision made, is a clue to what is to come in the future. Some things you cannot decide, and there are also things that you have no control over. these things all can be explained by simple science, EX: Hurricane Katrina, Nature vs. Sub sea level. Everyone looks to a higher power for something they feel they cannot handle, everyone wants someone to lean on. This is in our nature to look to someone higher but truthfully, when people put their trust in "god" they are just trying to push the stress they feel onto someone else. Ex. someone is being held at gunpoint, who do they turn to, Someone stricken with a deadly virus?. God is always there because he's not there at all. god is only hope, he is a metaphor for a person we all turn to in a time of crisis. Thats how i believe in god without believing any of the other religions, Any god that just subjects Blacks Gays Jews Hispanics or any race that isn't white is not a religion at all it is a cult. The kkk were strong religious people, how many of us agree with those racist ways, but wait they were Christians, and how many blacks will faithfully say they are Christians? Everyone twist, confuses and over elaborates the words of this ancient book. This book is the grouping of all the writings of the followers of Jesus. These people recorded his teachings probably in efforts to teach future generations about the words of a wise young man. I believe Other people edited this book to express their own personal views. To me, you cant create a new testament to a book if the book is already published!. And why is it that all of the restrictions that are in this book, besides the 10 commandments, in the new testament. To me it seems like someone inserted these things to try to combat certain situations. 'Im pretty sure God cares more about Gays then he does warfare' Youll go to hell if your gay but feel free to go to war with who you want as long as you say sorry later. right...! , some one please shed some light, im a very hard person to convince but i do believe in fact and reason.

I believe in the God of Paragraphs.

In his absence the Adversary rules causing my eyes to hurt and mind to become confused. Look to God my friend.

His way to peace and harmony is to create a new paragraph for every new idea presented.
